Is there a 3D Touch Probe Available to Work with Redline Controller

RealTime Controller (RTCNC) Feature Request
1

It would be really nice if there were a 3D touch probe that could be used with the Redline Controller. I am not looking for a “Touch Plate”, but an actual probe that could center the XY axis on the inside or outside of a particular shape object, touch the surface inside an object, etc. I have one for my Stepcraft CNC, and have found it to be very handy, especially if you want to relocate on an existing part that has been removed.

This would be another great example, only without a cable to attach.

Many of us feel the same, and it appears as an official feature request.

The answer is that this functionality will be added, just no firm timeline or availability date has been shared yet.
